Nothing too bad tbh, still pretty new any problems would have been fixed with the warranty so you should have no worries.

Dunno, mainly because my dad was looking at them a few years ago, I managed to talk him out of spending near 20 grand on one!

155
bored out to 2.2 from the 140 engine

also use this in the jag

If you can afford to run it then go for the V6

about 7.5 to 60 for the petrol which isnt bad for a big car

Traffic cops use the st220 tdci!

Remapped TDCI ftw all the way, they are so so underated.

The torque from the TDCi is amazing, no smoke no poke afterall.

My ZS TDCi is quick as fuck tbh, got more torque than a female chav

Mondeo ST's are a more exclusive car than the Aston Martin DB9.

I'd have one.

I take it you mean that less people have st's than DB9's, it's not a more exclusive car.

Look into road tax costs for the petrol version... i think that'll change your mind about buying one...
